The Undercity

[Emperor]

My main contardiction problem is I do have the Empire State Building in the cover.
Bummer!

Ah, that might be tricky as I think it was well established that the Empire States Building was moved up to Mega-City One.

Arthur Ranson's buried New York from 'Anderson: Childhood's End' is by far the most impressive incarnation of the Undercity - the Crystler Building is probably the tallest surviving tower block, its top floors are embedded in the concrete sky which means that the dome is about 1,000 feet tall at its highest point.

The Empire State and the Statue of Liberty (plus the World Trade Centre...) all appeared in Mega-City One long before the concept of the Undercity came along - they were presumably moved for tourists.

'Karyn: The Concrete Sky' also takes place in the Undercity - unfortunately, Adrian Salmon doesn't really do background detail so the darkness of the Undercity was represented by painting every panel completely black...

Mongoose's 'Rookie's Guide to the Undercity' (what I wrote) might help you out - it sold five or six copies before it went out of print!

Was there a post Total War story set when a hovbus crashed through the hole left by Ezra Pound block or did I dream it?

Yeah that happened. I think its where Psi Judge Karyn became a vampire monster.

FAKEEDIT: Decent. Progs 1432 - 1436. Words by Rennie. Art by Boo Cook.

I think you're thinking of 'Descent' by Rennie and Boo Cook in Progs 1432-1436. Cool story

As ever with thanks to Barney

[James Stacey]

That's the bunny, thanks. Cosh was already there with that one then.

[Cpt Rhodes]

Cheers folks, it's under reconstruction.

Just putting the finishing touches to the Zarjaz cover this weekend. A big thanks to all who helped out with reference pointers. My bank balance took a hit tracking some of it down, (I've become a fan of Tempest now) but I hope it will be worth it. Below is a tiny snippit from the pic and keep your eyes peeled for release of the full image at a later date on the Quaequam Blog.
Cheers folks!

That's looking damn fine.

I'd love to see you get a prog cover at some point.

[Steven Denton]

that is stunning!!!

[JOE SOAP]

Great pic, looks like "the Warriors".

Great pic, looks like "the Warriors".

My first thoughts were The Warriors meets Fallout 3. Which is only a good thing. Can't wait to see the whole thing.

A schmeiser. Would that be functional so far into the future?
A wonderful piece. As said by others, a few covers from you would be nice viewing for the prog.

Two of which I seem to have bought...

Looks fantastic, Cpt. Can't wait to see the finished thing.
